I’ve been using LinkedIn for years, and the “Saved Jobs” feature is one of the most practical tools for organizing your job search. To see your saved jobs, the process is simple and consistent across platforms. On a desktop or laptop, log into your LinkedIn account, then click the Jobs icon (the briefcase icon) in the top navigation bar. On the left sidebar, you’ll see a list of options—click “Saved Jobs” and you’ll land on a page that shows every job you’ve bookmarked. If you’re using the mobile app, tap the Jobs tab at the bottom of the screen, then tap the bookmark icon (or the “Saved” label) at the top of that page. That’s the core answer.
But there’s more to it than just finding the list. I’ve learned that keeping your saved jobs organized can save you hours of repeated searching. For example, LinkedIn allows you to filter saved jobs by date saved, company, or job title using the search bar within the Saved Jobs section. You can also remove a job from the list by clicking the bookmark icon again—useful when you’ve already applied or decided it’s not a fit. I personally check my saved jobs every few days and set job alerts for similar roles, which LinkedIn automatically suggests based on those saved posts. Here’s a quick breakdown of the steps:
| Platform | Action |
|---|---|
| Desktop | Click Jobs icon → Saved Jobs from left sidebar |
| Mobile App | Tap Jobs tab → Tap bookmark icon at top |
| Both | Use the search bar to filter by keyword or company |
One thing to keep in mind: LinkedIn only shows the most recent 1,000 saved jobs in the list. If you’re an active job seeker, you might hit that limit. I recommend regularly reviewing and pruning your saved list—delete outdated postings and keep only the ones you’re genuinely interested in. Also, if you’re using LinkedIn’s Premium subscription, you have access to more advanced filters like “Salary Range” and “Remote vs On-site” within the Saved Jobs view. It’s a small habit that makes a big difference in staying on top of opportunities.

I just check my saved jobs on LinkedIn by opening the app on my phone, tapping the Jobs tab at the bottom, and then tapping the bookmark icon at the top. That’s it. I don’t use the desktop version much because I’m always on the go. Sometimes I swipe left on a saved job to remove it quickly. Honestly, it’s one of the first things I do every morning to see if anything new caught my eye. I keep it simple—no extra filters, just scroll through the list.

I’m not the most tech-savvy person, but finding saved jobs on LinkedIn is actually easy. On my laptop, I click the Jobs icon at the top of the page, then look for the “Saved Jobs” link on the left side. It’s usually right under “My Jobs.” If I’m using my tablet, I just tap the same icon. I like that the list shows the date I saved each job, so I know which ones are older. I usually delete the ones I’ve already applied for to keep things tidy.

From my experience, the key to effectively using LinkedIn’s saved jobs feature is knowing where to find them and how to act on them. On desktop, navigate to Jobs > Saved Jobs in the left sidebar. On mobile, tap the Jobs tab then the bookmark icon. I always advise people to set a weekly reminder to review their saved list—jobs get filled quickly, and you don’t want to miss a deadline. Additionally, use the “Apply” button directly from the saved list if it’s still open. One tip: toggle on “Job Alerts” for your saved searches to get notified when similar roles are posted.

As someone who juggles multiple short-term contracts, I use LinkedIn’s saved jobs as a bookmark for future opportunities. To see them, I open the app, go to the Jobs tab, and tap the bookmark icon—it’s right there. I often save jobs that aren’t urgent but might become relevant when a current project wraps up. I also use the search bar within Saved Jobs to filter by keywords like “remote” or “contract.” That way, I can quickly scan for roles that match my freelance style without scrolling through hundreds of irrelevant listings.
